Description of 1978 Porsche 911 Coupe

1978 Porsche 911SC. Vin 678-276-7045. 5-Speed Manual. 74,451 Miles. Guards Red. Black Leather Interior. Books, Manuals, Service Records, 2-Keys, Tools, Spare, Jack, and a Car Cover. This great looking, non-sunroof 911SC was purchased new in Palm Beach, FL, and was then sold in 1993 to a Georgia Tech professor in Atlanta, who took care of this beaut for 25 years. The car has always been garaged and driven very sporadically during warm weather months. The overall condition of the car is very nice! Upon arrival to our shop,... the paint received a full thorough detail and the glistening Guards Red paint has truly come through. All the rubber moldings and trim pieces have been freshened up, giving this Porsche a fresh, clean look. The interior is in very nice shape as well, and the grey cloth seat inserts along with the Porsche-logo floor mats are a great addition to the overall picture. Mechanically, this car is spot on! The motor pulls strong and a recent leak down/compression check reveals very good numbers. Cyl 1: 155 psi. Cyl 2: 155 psi. Cyl 3: 160 psi. Cyl 4: 165 psi. Cyl 5: 155 psi. Cyl 6: 160 psi. Leakdown numbers were between 4-6% on all cylinders. The clutch and the transmission were rebuilt at 36K miles, and the shifting is smooth and synchronized. The braking is excellent as the car has just undergone a full brake rebuilt . The factory Fuchs are in nice shape, and are fitted with brand new tires all around. The 911SC models are starting to rapidly climb in price, and surprisingly are starting to rival its bigger 3.2L sibling. Similar things have happened with the 964 cars, which now have completely overtaken the 993 cars, both in popularity and demand. The price of the 964 coupes have now doubled from what they were and many people watching the market closely are predicting that something similar will happen with the SC cars. This beautiful Guards Red SC has all the ingredients and potential to be the next highly sought after car in someone’s collection. Don’t miss your chance!
